He noted that the campaign faced significant challenges, particularly after President Biden's withdrawal.

Human Events: DAVID KRAYDEN: Biden is true to form to the end — a bitter combustible old man
President Biden's recent attendance at the G-20 Conference raised questions about his mental fitness, as he was reportedly missing during a crucial group photo. Critics highlight his perceived cognitive decline and the influence of aides like Secretary of State Tony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan on policy decisions.
As Biden's presidency nears its end, concerns grow over escalating tensions in Ukraine and the potential for nuclear conflict. The administration's actions are seen as detrimental, with accusations of prioritizing military profits over peace, while Biden's recent pardon of Hunter Biden raises further questions about corruption.
Human Events: HUMAN EVENTS: We know Biden lied, but what is he trying to hide?
President Joe Biden has pardoned his son, Hunter Biden, for unspecified crimes dating back to 2014, raising concerns about the implications of such a broad pardon. Critics argue that this move appears to protect not only Hunter but potentially Joe Biden himself from scrutiny regarding past dealings, particularly related to Hunter's involvement with foreign companies.
The pardon encompasses a wide time frame and vague offenses, effectively erasing a decade of Hunter Biden's actions from federal legal oversight. This has led to accusations of a cover-up, with implications for national security and accountability, especially in light of evidence from Hunter's laptop. Critics suggest this reflects poorly on the Democratic Party's commitment to transparency and justice.
